His Tweets were bad even for his standards - even though I don't like the 4 democrats they were aimed at, it was out of line.
I'm still entertaining this theory that this latest gaff was maybe him taking a bullet tactically though. But if so, Trump is playing with Fire.
1) Distracts the media with nasty tweets, while he quietly removes asylum for South American nations. (If so, its worked)
2) Rally Nancy Pelosi and wider Democrat support around four of its Fringiest far left members who have a very low favorability rating. - making the Dems overall political position look insane and ultimately damaging them for 2020. -That said, Trumps remarks are not exactly likely to be a hit with swing voters either.
If you think about it, Trump is so reviled by the left (and considered racist) anyway, so he didn't really have alot to lose as far as they are concerned.
And actual policy advocating open borders and equity though intersectionality will scare off most Americans more than a bigoted tweet that will soon get buried.
However the 'Send her back' chants, re-enforces why that kind of rhetoric is pretty dangerous as well as nasty.
